FWIW, I think the connmand segfault on mips and powerpc is hinted at
with this bug:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lua5.3/+bug/1570055

connmand is a binary linked with a linker version-script. If I build
connmand without that option, it doesn't segfault, at least on mips.

The binutils manuals say you shouldn't build binaries with version
scripts:

http://ftp.gnu.org/old-gnu/Manuals/ld-2.9.1/html_node/ld_25.html 

Its suspected connman might do this to limit the function exposure to
its plugins.

Now sure exactly what needs to happen here without more research but it
certainly hits at where the problem is. I suspect its the same issue on
ppc.

Cheers,
